There should be a day between Sunday and Monday. I always wish Monday’s could be less cruel, and early 8 am meetings are simply malicious! I’ve never been much a breakfast person growing up. But as my brain required more mental heavy lifting, it is important to eat well and eat smart! That is why I like making a light but hearty breakfast with La Fourmi Bionique Montreal Gourmet Granola.

Eating right early/midlife may prevetent dementia later on. Eating large amount of saturated fats was linked to decreased cognitive function. Also a high saturated fats diet carries the epsilon 4 variant of the apolipoprotein E (ApoE) gene that is great risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease.

So for those early mornings when my eyes are too fuzzy to focus, I always reach for food that are particularly important to keep our grey matter happy. The ability to concentrate comes from a steady supply of energy in the form of glucose in our blood to our brain. Whole grains with low GI, antioxidants in blueberries that help memory, and Vitamin E to prevent cognitive decline. Adding nuts to your meals is a great way to get the benefits vitamin E.

Every bag of La Fourmi Bionique granolas includes a nutritious and great blend of slow, fresh baked granola. The Fourmi Bionique Aphrodisiac granola was chosen by the Selection Committee of the 2011 Trends & Innovation competition which was held at the SIAL Canada in Toronto.
